Backyard Friend


This little guy jumped by me as I was pulling some weeds on the south side of the house. He hopped into a window well and was tolerant enough of me to sit still and let me snap his photo.

Our Backyard Pine - August 2012

I'm a little worried about our backyard pine tree. It seems to be dropping may more sticks than usual and just doesn't seem as full. Some of this is due to age but I think some of it may also be due to this summer's heat wave. 

Scorched Grass

This little patch in the backyard is always the first to get scorched. This summer's heat wave made it worse. Dale's parents are coming into town this Friday so I'm hoping I can green it up by then!

Finally Starting to Plant Some Flowers

Busy, busy, busy, June and July. I'm finally starting to get some flowers planted. These marigolds look nice with some dusty miller to accent them. Both of these plants do pretty well into the fall.

The Bunny


These photos were taken on June 18. It was and especially hot day and, as you can especially see in the bottom photo, the bunny was feeling it.
